Significant Technical Input
Re: Feedback on Transmission Options

The clutch packs in the stock 4.11 and stock 4.44 can't hold as much torque as the clutch packs in the original SVX transmission; however, the taller gears means that the rotating assembly spins faster and the clutches don't see as much of the torque. It seems the 4.44 gear ratio is enough taller than the SVX's 3.545 gear ratio to make up for the weaker clutch packs. It seems the 4.11 gear ratio is not enough taller to make up for the weaker clutch packs. Any/all of them can be significantly upgraded to the extent that a stock transmission is a pos in comparison.
